Severe Thunderstorm Watch, May 19, 2024

There is a SEVERE THUNDERSTORM WATCH in place for much of the western half of the state through 9:00pm, Sunday, May 19, 2024. Also, a SEVERE THUNDERSTORM WATCH is in place for SE Nebraska for storms that will be out of the area by sunset. The watch itself goes until 2AM Monday. Large hail and damaging wind will be possible with storms that do form.

Storms that do form in the watch will move east as the day progresses. There may be a need for more watches as we get into Sunday night and early Monday morning.

Above is what StormCast is saying storms will do as we head into Monday morning.

Above is what Monday has in store. See slideshow for all of the severe weather potentials. Large hail, damaging wind, and tornadoes will be possible.

StormCast (above) is showing storms rolling through Monday night into early Tuesday. This would be all happening after sunset, so please have a way to be alerted should a storm come into your area while you are sleeping.

After Monday, we’re not quite done with the severe weather. Tuesday afternoon will see one more round of storms form over eastern Nebraska then move quickly east.
